Winnington Road, London, N2

A classic, detached family home located in this prime residential road in Hampstead Garden Suburb.

Description

Occupying an exceptional position on one of the area’s most highly regarded residential turnings, directly backing onto Hampstead Golf Course, this substantial detached residence offers approximately 6,434 sq ft (598 sq m) of accommodation arranged over three floors, set within a generous plot of approximately 0.35 acres (0.14 hectares).

Set well back from the road behind a deep carriage driveway providing ample off-street parking, the house has an impressive sense of arrival and considerable presence. The property is currently undergoing an extensive programme of refurbishment, presenting a rare opportunity for an incoming purchaser to complete the works and influence the final finishes, specification and detailing to suit their own taste and requirements.

At the heart of the house is a magnificent circular entrance hall with a dramatic double-height ceiling and galleried landing above. Generously proportioned reception rooms provide impressive spaces for both formal entertaining and everyday family life, with grand bay windows and French doors creating a natural connection to the gardens.

The newly planned accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to combine elegant entertaining space with the practical requirements of a substantial modern family home. The revised layout incorporates extensive bedroom accommodation, luxurious bathroom and dressing facilities, alongside dedicated spaces for working from home, family living and ancillary accommodation

The principal suite occupies a particularly privileged position within the house, enjoying wonderful views across the rear garden and the open green landscape of the golf course beyond. Further bedroom suites are arranged across the upper floors, providing excellent accommodation for family and guests.

Outside, the rear garden is a particularly special feature. Extending to approximately 108 ft x 76 ft, its westerly aspect makes the most of the afternoon and evening sun. A substantial terrace provides an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining, while the garden enjoys the exceptional backdrop of Hampstead Golf Course, creating a remarkable feeling of openness and greenery that is rarely found in a London home of this scale.

Location

What truly distinguishes the property is its exceptional setting. Positioned on a highly regarded residential turning and backing directly onto Hampstead Golf Course, the house combines the privacy and proportions of a substantial family residence with an unusually open, verdant outlook. The west-facing garden flows towards the greenery of the course beyond, giving the rear of the property a wonderful sense of space and separation. It is a particularly rare combination: a sizeable plot, substantial accommodation and an uninterrupted green backdrop, while remaining within London.
